SI International, Inc. and Subsidiaries

 

Notes to consolidated financial statements

(Unaudited)

1.                                      Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of SI International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 27, 2003. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in SI International’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 28, 2002.

 

2.                                      Summary of significant accounting policies:

 

Principles of consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries.   All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Reporting periods

 

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to December 31 of that year.  All fiscal years presented include 52 weeks. The Company’s quarters end on the Saturday nearest to the applicable quarterly month-end.  All quarters presented include 13 weeks.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

The balances of checks that the Company had written, but that had not yet been presented to the bank for payment were $0 and $2.2 million at September 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002, respectively.  These balances have been classified in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Our accounting policy regarding revenue recognition is written to comply with the following criteria:  (1) a contract has been executed; (2) the contract price is fixed and determinable; (3) delivery of services or products has occurred; and (4) collectibility of the contract price is considered probable and can be reasonably estimated.  Compliance with these criteria may require us to make significant judgments and estimates.

Significant customers

 

Revenue generated from contracts with the federal government or prime contractors doing business with the federal government accounted for a significant percent of revenues in the fiscal quarters and nine months ending September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002.

For the third quarter of 2003 as well as the third quarter of 2002, we had two contracts that generated more than 10% of our revenue.  Our C4I2SR contract with the U.S. Air Force Space Command represented approximately 24.6% and 25.4% of total revenue for the quarters ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002, respectively.   Our National Visa Center contract with the Department of State represented approximately 13.6% and 10.4% of total revenue for the quarters ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002, respectively.  For the nine months of 2003 as well as the first nine months of 2002, these two contracts also represented the contracts which generated more than 10% of total revenue.  Our C4I2SR contract represented approximately 22.4% and 23.3% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002, respectively.   Our National Visa Center contract represented approximately 14.3% and 10.9% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002, respectively.

 

Deferred financing costs

 

Costs incurred in establishing our credit facility are deferred and amortized as interest expense over the term of the related debt using the effective interest method. These deferred costs are reflected as a component of other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The deferred financing costs consist of the following (in thousands):

Deferred revenue

 

At the end of the quarter ended September 27, 2003 and the fiscal year ended December 28, 2002, we received advance payments of approximately $1.1 million from a customer to purchase equipment to be used in a contract. The advances were reflected as deferred revenue as of September 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002 in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, credit facilities, and notes payable. In management’s opinion, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values at September 27, 2003 and December 28, 2002.

Stock-based compensation

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure—an amendment of SFAS 123.”  This statement amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.  The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations.  Accordingly, compensation expense for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Company’s stock at the date of the grant over the exercise price of the related option.  The Company has adopted the annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 in its financial reports for the year ended December 28, 2002 and has adopted the interim disclosure provisions for its financial reports for the quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2003.

Earnings (loss) per share

 

The Company has applied SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share,” for all fiscal years presented in these consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 128 requires disclosure of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS). Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding without consideration of common stock equivalents or other potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to common stock equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Redeemable cumulative preferred stock is excluded from diluted earnings per share as it is not convertible into common stock.

New accounting pronouncements

 

In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (FIN 45).  FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosure to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements of FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 31, 2002. The Company does not expect adoption of FIN 45 to have a material effect on its financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

 

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46).”  FIN 46 clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” to certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from the other parties. FIN 46 applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The Company does not expect adoption of FIN 46 to have a material effect on its financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

 

3.                                      Acquisitions:

 

On March 9, 2000, the Company purchased all of the outstanding common stock of System Technology Associates, Inc. for consideration of approximately $33.0 million in cash and $4.8 million in subordinated notes in a transaction accounted for as a purchase.

Leases

 

As of September 27, 2003, the Company had noncancelable operating leases, primarily for real estate, that expire over the next ten years. Rental expense during the quarter and nine months ended September 27, 2003 was approximately $1.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively, compared to rental expense of approximately $1.1 million and $3.3 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2002, respectively.

 

Contract cost audits

 

Payments to the Company on government cost reimbursable contracts are based on provisional, or estimated indirect rates, which are subject to audit on an annual basis by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA). The cost audits result in the negotiation and determination of the final indirect cost rates that the Company may use for the period(s) audited. The final rates, if different from the provisional rates, may create an additional receivable or liability for the Company. The Company’s revenue recognition policy calls for revenue recognized on all cost reimbursable government contracts to be recorded at provisional rates unless collectibility is reasonably assured for costs incurred at higher rates. To the extent the indirect rate differential creates a liability for the Company, the differential is recognized as a reduction to revenue when identified.

 

Litigation and claims

 

We are not currently a party to any litigation or legal proceedings. We may become involved in legal and governmental, administrative or contractual proceedings in the future.

Stock option plan

 

In December 1998, the Company adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan to grant stock options to directors, consultants, executives, and other key employees of the Company. The Company may grant stock options to purchase up to 222,727 shares of its common stock.  No additional grants will be made under this plan.

 

In January 2001, the Company adopted the January 2001 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan. Under the plan, the Company may grant stock options to directors, consultants, executives and other key employees of the Company and its affiliates to purchase its common stock. The Company may grant stock options to purchase up to 35,056 shares of its common stock.  No additional grants will be made under this plan.

 

In March 2001, the Company adopted the 2001 Service Award Stock Option Plan to grant stock options to purchase up to 16,179 shares of its common stock to its employees and employees of its affiliates.  No additional grants will be made under this plan.

 

In May 2002, the Company adopted the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan to grant stock options to purchase up to 1,700,000 shares of its common stock to its employees and employees of its affiliates.  In October 2002, the Company amended this amount to 1,600,000 shares of its common stock.  The terms of the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan state that this ceiling of 1,600,000 shares of common stock shall automatically increase at the beginning of each fiscal year by a number of shares equal to the lesser of 160,000 shares of common stock and an amount determined by the Company’s Board of Directors.  Through the date of this report, the Company’s Board of Directors has not authorized any increase to the number of shares allocated to the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan.  Therefore, the current number of shares of the Company’s common stock allocated to this plan remains 1,600,000.  As of September 27, 2003, the Company had issued 867,310 stock options under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan against a ceiling of 1,600,000 shares of common stock authorized under this plan.

 

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” and “would” or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our future expectations, contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial position, or state other forward-looking information. We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to predict accurately or control. In particular, statements that we make in this section relating to the sufficiency of anticipated sources of capital to meet our cash requirements are forward- looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including as a result of some of the factors described below,  elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2002.   You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q.

 

Our fiscal year is based on a calendar year and ends each year on the Saturday closest to December 31 of that year. As a result, our fiscal year may be comprised of 52 or 53 weeks. Our 2002 fiscal year had 52 weeks and our 2003 fiscal year has 52 weeks.  Our quarters end on the Saturday nearest to the applicable quarterly month-end.  Each quarter in 2002 had 13 weeks and our quarters in 2003 each have 13 weeks.

We have derived a substantial majority of our revenues from governmental contracts under which we act as a prime contractor. We also provide services indirectly as a subcontractor. We intend to focus on retaining and increasing the percentage of our business as prime contractor because it provides us with stronger client relationships. The following table shows our revenues as prime contractor and as subcontractor as a percentage of our total revenue for the following periods:

Under cost reimbursable contracts, we are reimbursed for costs that are determined to be reasonable, allowable and allocable to the contract, and paid a fee representing the profit margin negotiated between us and the contracting agency, which may be fixed or performance based. Under cost reimbursable contracts we recognize revenues and an estimate of applicable fees earned as costs are incurred. We consider fixed fees under cost reimbursable contracts to be earned in proportion to the allowable costs incurred in performance of the contract. For performance-based fees under cost reimbursable contracts, we recognize the relevant portion of the expected fee to be awarded by the client at the time such fee can be reasonably estimated, based on factors such as our prior award experience and communications with the client regarding performance. In general, cost reimbursable contracts are the least profitable of our government contracts. In the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, 40.4% and 38.4%, respectively, of our revenues were derived from cost reimbursable contracts.  In the three and nine months ended September 28, 2002, 42.2% and 40.9%, respectively, of our revenues were derived from cost reimbursable contracts.

 

Under time and materials contracts, we are reimbursed for labor at fixed hourly rates and generally reimbursed separately for allowable materials, costs and expenses. To the extent that our actual labor costs under a time and materials contract are higher or lower than the billing rates under the contract, our profit under the contract may either be greater or less than we anticipated or we may suffer a loss under the contract. We recognize revenues under time and materials contracts by multiplying the number of direct labor hours expended by the contract billing rates and adding the effect of other billable direct costs. In general, we realize a higher profit margin on work performed under time and materials contracts than cost reimbursable contracts. In the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, 32.4% and 35.6%, respectively, of our revenues were derived from time and materials contracts.  In the three and nine months ended September 28, 2002, 41.8% and 43.1%, respectively, of our revenues were derived from time and material contracts.

 

Under fixed price contracts, we perform specific tasks for a fixed price. Compared to cost reimbursable and time and materials contracts, fixed price contracts generally offer higher profit margin opportunities but involve greater financial risk because we bear the impact of cost overruns in return for the full benefit of any cost savings. We generally do not undertake complex, high-risk work, such as long-term software development, under fixed price terms. Fixed price contracts may include either a product delivery or specific service performance over a defined period.  Revenue on fixed price contracts that provide for the Company to render services throughout a period is recognized as earned according to contract terms as the service is provided on a proportionate performance basis.  These contracts are generally less than six months in duration.  For fixed price contracts that provide for the delivery of a specific product with related customer acceptance provisions, revenues are recognized as those products are delivered and accepted.  In the three and nine months ended September 27, 2003, 27.2% and 26.0%, respectively, of our revenues were derived from fixed price contracts.   In the three and nine months ended September 28, 2002, 16.0% and 16.0%, respectively, of our revenues were derived from fixed price contracts.

 

If we anticipate a loss on a contract, we provide for the full amount of anticipated loss at the time of that determination.

 

Our most significant expense is direct cost, which consists primarily of direct labor costs for program personnel and direct expenses incurred to complete contracts, including cost of materials and subcontractor costs. Our ability to predict accurately the number and types of personnel, their salaries, and other costs, can have a significant impact on our direct cost.

 

The allowability of certain direct and indirect costs in federal contracts is subject to audit by the client, usually through the DCAA. Certain indirect costs are charged to contracts and paid by the client using provisional, or estimated, indirect rates, which are subject to later revision, based on the government audits of those costs.

We actively monitor our relationships with our clients during our engagements, as well as the quality of the service we provide, to assist in our efforts to win recompetition bids. In addition, we strive to maintain good relationships with a wide variety of government contractors.

Three months ended September 27, 2003 compared with three months ended September 28, 2002

 

Revenue.  For the three months ended September 27, 2003, our revenues increased 9.6% to $42.1 million from $38.4 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002. Revenues from work under federal government contracts increased 9.0% to $39.4 million for the three months ended September 27, 2003 from $36.1 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002. This increase was primarily attributable to increased activity in our outsourcing, learning and network solutions services.  Commercial revenues increased 20.5% to $2.7 million in the three months ended September 27, 2003 from $2.3 million in the three months ended September 28, 2002.  The increase was attributable to increased activity in our support to the pharmaceutical industry.

 

Direct costs.  Direct costs include direct labor costs and other direct costs such as materials and subcontracts. Generally, changes in direct costs are correlated to changes in revenue as resources are consumed in the production of that revenue. For the three months ended September 27, 2003, direct costs increased 5.8% to $25.8 million from $24.4 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002. This increase was attributable primarily to the increase in revenue. As a percentage of revenue, direct costs were 61.3% for the three months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to 63.7% for the three months ended September 28, 2002.

 

Indirect costs.  Indirect costs include costs associated with facilities, selling, bid and proposal, indirect labor, fringe benefits and other discretionary costs. For the three months ended September 27, 2003, indirect costs increased 13.7% to $12.3 million from $10.8 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002.  This increase was attributable primarily to increases in fringe benefits and other personnel related costs.  As a percentage of revenue, indirect costs were 29.3% for the three months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to 28.2% for the three months ended September 28, 2002.

 

Depreciation. For the three months ended September 27, 2003, depreciation expense decreased 5.0% to $0.50

 

15



 

million from $0.52 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002.  This decrease was attributable primarily to reduced levels of capital expenditures and the disposal of certain assets made in connection with a facility relocation. As a percentage of revenue, depreciation expense was 1.2% for the three months ended September 27, 2003 compared to 1.4% for the three months ended September 28, 2002.

 

Income from operations.  For the three months ended September 27, 2003, income from operations increased 32.4% to $3.4 million from $2.6 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002. This increase was attributable primarily to increased revenues and gross margin improvement.  As a percentage of revenue, income from operations was 8.2% for the three months ended September 27, 2003 compared to 6.7% for the three months ended September 28, 2002.

 

Interest expense.  Interest expense declined 75.6% to $0.16 million for the three months ended September 27, 2003 from $0.66 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002. This decline was attributable primarily to the repayment of debt with proceeds generated from the Company’s initial public offering. As a percentage of revenue, interest expense was 0.4% for the three months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to 1.7% for the three months ended September 28, 2002.  Interest expense included approximately $98,000 and $46,000 of amortization of deferred financing costs for the three months ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002, respectively.

 

Provision for/benefit of  income taxes.  The provision for income tax was $1.3 million in the three months ended September 27, 2003, compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended September 28, 2002.   For the three months ended September 27, 2003, we have recorded an expense for income tax, which reflects an effective rate of 39.5%, due to a higher effective state tax rate and certain nondeductible expenses incurred.  For the three months ended September 28, 2002, the effective tax rate was less than the federal statutory rate of 34% due primarily to the effect of state income taxes and put warrants.

 

Nine months ended September  27, 2003 compared with nine months ended September  28, 2002

 

Revenue.  For the nine months ended September 27, 2003, our revenues increased 15.7% to $124.1 million from $107.2 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2002. Revenues from work under federal government contracts increased 16.1% to $116.0 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 from $99.9 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2002. This increase was attributable primarily to increased activities in our outsourcing, learning, consulting and network solutions services.  Commercial revenues increased 10.7% to $8.1 million in the nine months ended September 27, 2003 from $7.3 million in the nine months ended September 28, 2002.  The increase was attributable primarily to increased activity in our support to the pharmaceutical industry.

 

Direct costs.  Direct costs include direct labor costs and other direct costs such as materials and subcontracts. Generally, changes in direct costs are correlated to changes in revenue as resources are consumed in the production of that revenue. For the nine months ended September 27, 2003, direct costs increased 14.8% to $75.1 million from $65.4 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2002. This increase was attributable primarily to the increase in revenue. As a percentage of revenue, direct costs were 60.5% for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to 61.0% for the nine months ended September 28, 2002.

 

Indirect costs.  Indirect costs include costs associated with facilities, selling, bid and proposal, indirect labor, fringe benefits and other discretionary costs. For the nine months ended September 27, 2003, indirect costs increased 5.9% to $38.6 million from $36.5 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2002.  The increase was attributable primarily to indirect costs associated with increased revenue, partially offset by other indirect cost savings.  As a percentage of revenue, indirect costs were 31.1% for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to 34.0% for the nine months ended September 28, 2002.

 

Depreciation. For the nine months ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002, depreciation expense was $1.5 million.  As a percentage of revenue, depreciation expense was 1.2% for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 compared to 1.4% for the nine months ended September 28, 2002.

 

Income from operations.  For the nine months ended September 27, 2003, income from operations increased 131.8% to $8.9 million from a $3.8 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2002. This increase was attributable primarily to the  higher revenue and indirect cost savings.  As a percentage of revenue, income from operations was 7.2% for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 compared to 3.6% for the nine months ended September 28, 2002.

Interest expense.  Interest expense declined 76.7% to $0.47 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 from $2.01 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2002. This decline was attributable primarily to the repayment of debt with proceeds generated from the Company’s initial public offering. As a percentage of revenue, interest expense was 0.4% for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to 1.9% for the nine months ended September 28, 2002.  Interest expense included $286,000 and $224,000 of amortization of deferred financing costs for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002, respectively.

 

Provision for income taxes.  The provision for income tax was $3.3 million in the nine months ended September 27, 2003, compared to  $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2002.   For the nine months ended September 27, 2003, we have recorded an expense for income tax, which reflects an effective rate of 39.5% due to a higher effective state tax rate and certain nondeductible expenses incurred.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our primary liquidity needs are the financing of working capital, capital expenditures and acquisitions. We rely on cash flow from operations, borrowings under our credit facility and the sale of common stock to provide for our cash needs.

 

Net cash provided by operations was $15.1 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 compared with $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2002.  Cash provided by operations in the nine months ended September 27, 2003 was attributable to net income of $5.1 million, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash items of $2.1 million, decrease in working capital and other operating assets and liabilities of $7.9 million. Cash provided by operations in the nine months ended September 28, 2002 was attributable to net income of $1.6 million, non-cash items of $1.3 million and a decrease in working capital and other operating assets and liabilities of $2.9 million.

 

Cash used in investing activities was $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 compared with $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2002.  For both nine months ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002, our investing activities were primarily attributed to the purchase of capital assets.

 

Cash used in financing activities was $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2003, compared with $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2002.  Cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 was attributable to repayments for notes and leases of $0.2 million and repayment of bank overdrafts of $2.2 million.  Cash used in financing activities in the nine months ended September 28, 2002 was primarily attributable to the repayment of a contingency note in the amount of $0.9 million to the seller related to the acquisition of SI Engineering and the repayments of the line of credit, long-term debt and other items of $2.8 million.

 

We maintain a $35.0 million secured revolving credit facility.  As of September 27, 2003 we did not have any borrowings under the credit facility.

 

For the nine months ended September 27, 2003 as well as the nine months ended September 28, 2002, we had two contracts that generated more than 10% of our revenue.  Our C4I2SR contract with the U.S. Air Force Space Command represented approximately 22.4% and 23.3% of total revenue for each of the nine months ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002, respectively.   Our National Visa Center contract with the Department of State represented approximately 14.3% and 10.9% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 and September 28, 2002, respectively.

 

Financial data for all of our subsidiaries are included in our consolidated financial statements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to our accompanying consolidated financial statements. We consider the accounting policies related to revenue recognition to be critical to the understanding of our results of operations.  Our critical accounting policies also include the areas where we have made what we consider to be particularly difficult, subjective or complex judgments in making estimates, and where these estimates can significantly impact our financial results under different assumptions and conditions. We prepare our financial statements in conformity with

 

17



 

accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. As such, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information available. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could be different from these estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Our accounting policy regarding revenue recognition is written to comply with the following criteria: (1) a contract has been executed; (2) the contract price is fixed and determinable; (3) delivery of services or products has occurred; and (4) collectibility of the contract price is considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. Compliance with these criteria may require us to make significant judgments and estimates.

 

For cost reimbursable contracts with fixed fees and fixed price contracts, we estimate the applicable fees earned as costs are incurred or services are provided. This process requires estimation of the contemplated level of effort to accomplish the tasks under contract, the cost of such effort and ongoing assessment towards completing the contract. We utilize a number of management processes to monitor contract performance and revenue estimates, including monthly in-process reviews. For cost reimbursable contracts with performance-based fees, we estimate the applicable fees earned based on historical experience and performance evaluations from our customers. For fixed price contracts, which are based on unit pricing, we recognize revenue for the number of units delivered in any given fiscal period.  For fixed price contracts, which are based on the proportionate performance method and involve a specified number of similar acts, we recognize revenue based on the proportion of those acts completed compared to the number of total specified acts required by the contract.  For fixed price contracts, which are based on the proportionate performance method and involve a specified number of defined but not similar acts, we recognize revenue based on the proportion of the project’s percentage total costs incurred  compared to the estimated total costs associated with the entire transaction.  Occasionally, facts may develop that require revisions to estimated total costs or revenues expected. The cumulative effect of any such revisions is recorded in the period in which the facts requiring the revision become known. The full amount of anticipated losses on any contract type are recognized in the period in which they become known.

 

In addition, certain indirect costs are charged to contracts and paid by the client using provisional, or estimated, indirect rates that are subject to later revision based on government audits. Any costs found to be improperly allocated to a specific contract will not be reimbursed, and any such costs already reimbursed must be refunded.

 

Effect of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (FIN 45). FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosure to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements of FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 31, 2002. The Company does not expect adoption of FIN 45 to have a material effect on its financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123” (“SFAS 148”). SFAS 148 amends SFAS 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require more prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements regarding the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The alternative methods of transition of SFAS 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. The disclosure provision of SFAS 148 is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. The Company follows APB 25 in accounting for its employee stock options. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 148 to have a material impact on its operating results or financial position.

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46). FIN 46 clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements, to certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from the other parties. FIN 46 applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003.  Management believes that the Company does not expect adoption of FIN 46. The Company does not expect adoption of FIN 46 to have a material effect on its financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

 

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Historically, our investment positions have been relatively small and short-term in nature. We have typically made investments in a fund with an effective average maturity of fewer than 40 days and a portfolio make-up consisting primarily of commercial paper and notes, variable rate instruments, and, to a lesser degree, overnight securities and bank instruments.  Since our initial public offering, the Board of Directors approved an investment policy that requires us to invest in relatively short-term, high quality, and high liquidity obligations.

 

Item 4.     Controls and Procedures.

 

The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Within the 90 days prior to the filing date of this quarterly report, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the date of such evaluation in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings.

 

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation.
